Here's an interesting piece of information for you.

Apple iPhone is apparently the bestseller not only in the US, but even in Europe, where it officially appeared just last month, and was accepted with less enthusiasm because of the lack of some important features.

The handset has managed to overpass in sales such giants like HTC Touch, LG Prada, and even Nokia N95, which only means that despite of all of its downsides the device still remains very popular among consumers.

The Hamburg District Court announced on Monday that it would delay by one a ruling on dispute between T-Mobile and Vodafone over the right to sell the Apple iPhone in Germany.

Now the ruling is expected to be announced this afternoon. Just to remind you, the case started on November 12 when after the Vodafone's appeal T-Mobile was forbidden to sell the handset exclusively.

According to AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson, the 3G Apple iPhone will be available sometime next year.

Apart from that we have no more information concerning what type of 3G network the device will use, how much it will cost, and when exactly it will be released.

Apple in its turn did not announce any new versions of the iPhone.

According to recent reports, Apple iPhone has serious connection problems on the British O2 wireless network.

The carrier received complains from its customers that most of the time they see a "No service" sign of the screen. There was a suggestion on Apple’s Support Forums to fully restore the phone's firmware to avoid any more issues, but frankly speaking the problem must be in the network itself, especially when knowing that the indoor reception turns out to be even worse.

Finally, Apple iPhone is now available in France from Orange.

This is the second country (after Germany ) to offer unlocked SIM-free iPhone, in compliance with the law. You can get the unlocked version for about $965.32 in France, or for $1485.91 in Germany. Pretty expensive don't you think? Anyway, the handset is also available for $593 after a contract with Orange.

As you probably know, T-Mobile Germany has recently started offering unlocked (contract free) iPhones for 999 Euros.

Well, they are not really unlocked; you purchase a regular locked handset, and then send the phone's IMEI to Apple for unlocking. Within 24 hours they send you an e-mail saying "thank you”, and after that you just connect your iPhone to iTunes and voila.

According to a reliable source, the new upcoming SDK for the iPhone scheduled for February 2008 release will bring Java support to the handset.

This means that Apple iPhone owners will finally be able to use and play Java applications and games on their devices. There is not much info available at the moment, but we know that the phone's processor supports hardware Java acceleration, so, all we can do now is wait for the official release.

People from WMExperts made a 25 minute long video clip where they compare the Apple iPhone with the HTC Touch. Overall, the Touch gained more points and won the competition thanks to its high productivity.

However, if you need advanced internet and multimedia experience, then the iPhone is the right choice for you.

Apple announced today that they are about to release yet another firmware update for their famous iPhone.

According to a person who has already tried the upgrade, the version 1.1.2 will include additional multi-language support and access to The Cloud Wi-Fi spots.

However, what worries us the most is the possible blocking (once again) of cracked handsets.

If the ad you see on the picture is true, then we can expect the iPhone to be available in Canada from Rogers Wireless by December 7 despite the difficulties we told you about earlier.

It will cost C$499.99, or about $519 USD after a 3-year contract. Pre-orders will start on November 20.
